Thanks for all the input.
I have two 6volt Trojans, less than one year old.
The fridge is new, this trip. Yes, it was on auto.
We have the 12 volt cooler for overflow. I can't measure DC amp draw.
Each generator has output of around 11-12 amps at 121VAC
Yes, I meant to say 13.7 - 14.1 charging volts
The inverter is about four years old.
The converter is OEM in this 07 JAYCO
I tried starting the AC with either and both generators running. The overload tripped.
The tech support from Yamaha said, with nothing else running the AC should start. I turned the converter breaker off, but I may have missed the refr and backup cooler.
I think the best comment is I'm asking too much from too little equipment. I don't understand how solar charger can be so much better. We are in a park with maybe a hundred other no hookup campers and I only hear maybe two other generators.
Hope this clarifies, some.
